Media Training

The best ways to maximize a media interview opportunity to the fullest are to prepare and to practice. That’s where a customized, professional Media Training session can help.

Owners, CEOs, senior executives and division heads are ideal interview sources to build or repair a company’s credibility in the public eye – when they’re well prepared and comfortable. Even polished public speakers and professional spokespeople can benefit from practice delivering succinct, memorable quotes “on message” and becoming so familiar with the “hard” questions that they become “easy.”

Tanner Friedman offers national-caliber Media Training sessions across the country, at reasonable rates. Because we’ve worked as and with journalists for many years, as well as serving as on-the-record spokespeople ourselves, understand how reporters probe for answers and know what questions they will ask. As professional communicators, we know the types of styles and body language that build confidence.

We design personalized, meaningful preparation with “real world” scenarios for interviews, news conferences, panel discussions, forums and other appearances. Our sessions offer a safe environment where clients can make mistakes and learn from them as part of providing assessment and feedback, as well as simulations.
